petitions on August 17 seeking cancellation of their bail.
The Huji members --Munshi Mohibullah alias Mohibur Rahman, brother of Huji Chief Mufti Abdul Hannan, and Arif Hasan Sumon --obtained bail in the case on August 12.
Their bail was earlier cancelled in a case filed under the Explosive Substances Act, 1908.
Upon separate petitions submitted by die investigation officer (IO), the court extended the investigation completion deadline into the cases by two months and also directed inspector general of police (IGP) to submit probe reports by the same time, which had earlier expired on October 3.
On August 12 this year, Speedy Trial Tribunal-1 Judge Masdar Hossain granted the Huji men bail saying they were not directly involved in the incident.
Earlier, the same court on August 3 ordered a further prone into the cases following petitions filed seeking fresh investigation.
Meanwhile, the newly appointed IO Criminal Investigation Department's (CID) additional superintendent of police Abdul Kahar Akond took Pintu and a Huji member MoulanaAbuTaher on a three-day fresh remand for interrogation.
Twenty-three people were killed and 300 others were injured in the grenade attack on an Awami League rally at Bangabandhu Avenue on August 21,2004.
T\vo cases - one for murder and the other for blasting grenades at the rally - were filed following the incident.
On June 11 last year, CID pressed charges against 22 people including Mufti Abdul Hannan, and former deputy minister and BNP leader Abdus Salam Pintu.
CID arrested Hannan, Pintu and 12 others who are now in jail custody.
Pintu's 'brother Moulana Tajuddin and seven others have been absconding since the cases were filed.
